| Please don't top-post: http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#TOFU | | According to Chen Yue on 3/15/2008 10:55 AM: | | Hi Eric | | | From: Eric Blake [mailto:ebb9 AT byu.net] | ~ ^^^^ | Please don't include raw email addresses in your replies: | http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR This is getting tiring. PLEASE follow directions. I had to once again reformat and remunge your message. According to Yue Chen on 3/26/2008 12:38 AM: | Hi Eric | | Really thank you for the help. Now I have downloaded the latest | snapshot. However, I found there was no bash in the package. In order | to use bash in cygwin 1.7.x snapshort, I downloaded the bash source | code from cygwin site and tried to build it. You don't have to build bash to use it - use setup.exe to install the prebuilt version (3.2.33-18), along with everything else in the Base category required to make the cygwin 1.7.x snapshot useful (and yes, for the record, building bash on cygwin requires a pre-built bash - it is part of bootstrapping, if you really insist on building the world from scratch, although that isn't generally necessary). | | But I can not figure out how to build bash for cygwin 1.7.x. (The | build script needs bash). If I use bash from 1.5.4 to build, I can not | build it out for 1.7.x.(I run "build-3.1-6.sh all", but there seems | some libraries lacking). Should I build the libraries one by one | myself? I checked Cygwin FAQ. There seems no answer there. Really? http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.snapshots | | So is there any quick reference to build binary for 1.7.x in 1.5.4 | environment? This is my first time to build cygwin binary. I am really | puzzled. http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.building-cygwin - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
